• Slated to start Wednesday
    Ullmark is set to start on the road against Tampa Bay on Wednesday, per Joe Pohoryles of The Hockey News.

    Advice: Ullmark has a 19-8-7 record, 2.66 GAA and .913 save percentage in 35 appearances this year. He turned aside 26 of 29 shots en route to a 3-2 loss to Philadelphia in his last start Saturday. The Lightning, who rank sixth offensively with 3.48 goals per game, figure to be a challenging opponent for Ullmark. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:57 am
  • Practices in non-contact jersey
    Grundstrom (lower body) practiced in a non-contact jersey Wednesday, per Eric Stephens of The Athletic.

    Advice: It's an encouraging step forward for Grundstrom, who was last in the lineup Feb. 13. He has eight goals, 12 points and 115 hits in 60 games this season. Grundstrom will likely serve on the fourth line once he has recovered from his lower-body injury. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:39 am
  • On long-term injured reserve
    Demko (knee) was moved to long-term injured reserve Wednesday, retroactive to March 9.

    Advice: Demko will be eligible to return for a road game against LA on April 6 at the earliest. He has a 34-13-2 record, 2.47 GAA and .917 save percentage in 49 outings this season. Casey DeSmith is likely to continue to get the bulk of Vancouver's starts during Demko's absence while Arturs Silovs will primarily serve as the backup. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:09 am
  • Up from minors
    Bains was called up from AHL Abbotsford on Wednesday.

    Advice: Bains' promotion could be an indication that Elias Lindholm (undisclosed) will remain sidelined heading into Thursday's clash with Dallas. The 23-year-old Bains has played in just five NHL games this season in which he's tallied three shots, five hits and six PIM while averaging 12:57 of ice time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:05 am
  • Contributes helper
    Zary posted an assist and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Blackhawks.

    Advice: The helper was Zary's first point in three games since he returned from an upper-body injury. He's been back in his usual spot alongside Nazem Kadri, so there's still potential for Zary to get his game on track late in the campaign. The 22-year-old rookie has 30 points, 71 shots on net and a plus-16 rating through 53 appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:57 am
  • Adds helper in loss
    Kadri notched an assist and four shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Blackhawks.

    Advice: Kadri had gone three games without a point before setting up MacKenzie Weegar's tally in the third period. The 33-year-old Kadri has had few slumps this season as one of the Flames' top forwards. He's produced 60 points, 234 shots on net, 54 hits, 39 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 71 appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:52 am
  • Manages helper Tuesday
    Ceci posted an assist, three hits and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Jets.

    Advice: Ceci has two helpers over his last four contests. The 30-year-old defenseman isn't relied on for offense, though he's had mixed results overall in 2023-24. He's at 20 points, 83 shots on net, 100 blocked shots, 77 hits and a plus-5 rating through 70 appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:50 am
  • Questionable versus Washington
    Rielly (upper body) is considered questionable for Thursday's matchup with Washington, Luke Fox of Sportsnet reports.

    Advice: Rielly missed Tuesday's loss to the Devils due to his upper-body issue, and it looks like his status for Thursday's contest may boil down to a game-time decision. Rielly's racked up seven goals and 51 points through 65 contests this season -- fantasy managers should plan on keeping a close eye on his status ahead of puck drop Thursday.

  • Nabs assist
    Foegele logged an assist and three hits in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Jets.

    Advice: Foegele had gone four games without a point prior to Tuesday. The 27-year-old winger set up a Leon Draisaitl tally in the second period. Foegele's best bet for sustained offense is playing on the second line, but the Oilers are still mixing and matching wingers there when Draisaitl centers his own line. Foegele is up to 36 points, 164 shots on net, 77 hits, 45 PIM and a plus-1 rating through 70 appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:48 am
